Carter et al. report that exposure to static magnetic and electric fields (sBE), for as little as 3 days, reverses glucose intolerance and insulin resistance in diet-induced and genetic mouse models of type 2 diabetes (1). They hypothesize that sBE triggers a systemic redox response to modulate insulin sensitivity and that sBE could therefore be used as a noninvasive treatment for type 2 diabetes. However, these authors were unable to define a mechanism to explain how SBE might alter ROS or to identify the specific proteins that mediate this effect. Given these limitations we propose an alternative hypothesis to explain their findings. |
